Special thanks Ezechielle for info about this Padme Amidala custom lost in a flickr gallery between some futuristic soldiers and ISA members from Killzone. By the way, if you like the LEGO Militaria, go on blog, you will be served. If you don't like it go ahead anyway it's informative ....

It is so rare to be able to admire Padme Amidala / Natalie Portman in the form of a minifigure, that we have to jump at every opportunity ... And this one is nice and very well done.

This custom resumes the very becoming outfit (From the verb seoir) of theEpisode II Attack of the Clones, and apart from the poorly chosen hair, we can not blame him much.

Note the use of a bust adornment from home BrickTW, Taiwanese specialist in custom LEGO accessories mainly relating to oriental history.

I'm not usually a fan of Bionicles and other Hero Factory ... Generation question probably, because my 8 year old son loves it.

However, I must admit that this MOC of Sparkytron, who enters the competition Lego superheroes, is really successful. It perfectly reproduces the silhouette so familiar of Flash and this using pieces of sets Hero Factory. The colors are faithful to the costume of the fastest hero on the planet and the mask is simply stunning in ingenuity. Only the Flash logo has been replaced by the white Hero Factory symbol.

Other views are available in Sparkytron's flickr gallery.

Another Tumber MOC, you might say ... But this one has some interesting features: It is on a minifig scale, it can accommodate 2 minifigs side by side in the cockpit and above all it turns into a Batpod.

The design is quite close to the original model seen in The Dark Knight and the Batpod transformation process is very ingenious: The front part of the Tumbler detaches and converts into a Batpod via two joints.

In the end, this MOC is an excellent compromise between design, playability and functionality.

bricked one offers many photos of this MOC on his flickr gallery.

The first images of the start of Operation Santa Yoda which takes place in San Francisco and I was telling you about yesterday are starting to hit the Internet. 

We discover the basic model serving as a reference for the construction of the giant version of 3.60m high. We can see the legs under construction on the left of the photo.

You can also see the instructions for the assembly of the superbricks (4x the size of a classic 2x4 brick) which are used to assemble the giant maxifig.
